Chapter 1074 Sweeping them all away, leaving no one alive
Duke Anguo, Fu Peng, offered words of comfort, but how could Old Madam Xue truly put her mind at ease? She still looked at Duke Anguo, Fu Peng, her children and grandchildren, and then at her little granddaughter beside her with a worried expression.
Leng Rongyue grasped her grandmother's other hand and hurriedly comforted her, "Grandma, don't worry, Grandpa and the others will be fine!"
Yue'er will not let the evil plan of the Dongwei beasts succeed!
Grandpa, uncles and brothers, and grandma and aunt... we, the whole family... Yue'er will protect you!
And that beastly crown prince of East Venezuela… I’m going to take his life!
Leng Rongyue gritted her teeth as she spoke of the beastly crown prince of Dongwei.
Madam Xue squeezed Leng Rongyue's small hand back, nodded, and gradually regained her composure.
Madam Xue and Duke Anguo Fu Peng were childhood sweethearts. Throughout her life, she sent her husband to the battlefield more than once or twice. How could she be the wife of a military general without sufficient willpower?
In recent years, however, Madam Xue had become accustomed to Duke Anguo Fu Peng staying in the capital and having him by her side. So when she heard that her husband was in danger, she couldn't help but feel nervous and worried.
But soon, at least on the surface, Madam Xue calmed down!
Duke Fu Peng comforted his wife, then looked at Leng Rongyue, "Yue'er, you just said that I was the first on their assassination list. That means that besides me, there are other people in their assassination plan?"
"That's right?"
Leng Rongyue nodded.
"They planned to kill one person a day for five consecutive days before the emperor's death;
They want our Emperor of Jingyue Kingdom, and everyone in the Jingyue Kingdom, to receive a death notice every day!
They want to turn the emperor's grand celebration into a funeral feast!
They want to turn the Emperor's birthday celebration into a huge joke!
They want to create chaos in Jingyue first, and then profit from the chaos!
In other words, they intend to take advantage of the situation, forcing the Emperor to first agree to two marriage alliances, and then to open up Haining Prefecture, allowing their Eastern Wei vassals to freely reside and trade. Their plan is to use Haining as a starting point to gradually infiltrate and erode the Jingyue Kingdom, ultimately completing their plan to annex Jingyue!
"What a beast from the East!"
Two marriage alliances are already wishful thinking, yet they dare to have any plans to change countries!
Their scheme is utterly malicious!
Even the usually gentle and refined eldest son, Fu Mingjun, now had anger flashing in his eyes!
"Moon, besides your grandfather, who else was involved in the Dongwei beasts' assassination plot?"
"Master Fu Yinglan asked in a deep voice."
"Their plan includes four people besides my maternal grandfather, all of whom are important officials in the Jingyue Kingdom's court—"
There was the Empress's father—the Imperial Tutor, Grand Tutor Luan.
There is Grand Secretary Qin Huaiyuan;
There is also Marquis Cheng Guan of Huaining;
besides……"
As Leng Rongyue finished speaking, she turned to look at her second wife, Zheng Suyao, who was sitting next to her with wide eyes.
Seeing Leng Rongyue looking at her, Second Madam Zheng Suyao was slightly taken aback, but then instantly understood...
"Moon, you said there was another one, could it be... could it be..."
Leng Rongyue nodded, "He is indeed my second aunt's elder brother, the Zheng family uncle who was appointed as the Grand General of the State by the Emperor!"
Upon hearing this, no one spoke for a moment, their brows furrowed in worry.
On one hand, the Eastern Wei beasts are trying to buy off, win over, and coerce the spineless and corrupt officials of Jingyue Kingdom to be driven by them;
On the one hand, they also need to eliminate the key ministers of Jingyue Kingdom!
They have the ambition of wolves; they are truly insidious and vicious!
Leng Rongyue continued, "His Majesty's birthday is on October 16th, and today is October 4th, while the arrival date of the Dongwei delegation in the capital is set for October 14th."
The East Venezuelan delegation is only three or four days away from the capital, but they insist on dawdling for ten days before finally entering the city.
The purpose was to launch the murder plan without being suspected of murder!
I heard clearly from His Highness Prince Yu that their killing plan started on the ninth day of the month and continued until the thirteenth day of the tenth month, killing five people in five consecutive days!
If news of assassinations of high-ranking officials emerges every day for five consecutive days, will the Emperor's birthday celebrations still proceed? What should be done?
At that time, Jingyue Kingdom will become a laughingstock throughout the world!
"Those beasts from East Venezuela are simply too arrogant!"
They've become so arrogant that they've forgotten this is Jingyue Kingdom, not their beastly Dongwei Kingdom!
Since they've gone to such lengths to kill people in Jingyue Kingdom, then let them leave their dog lives there!
Duke Anguo, Fu Peng, said firmly.
"Grandpa is right!"
Leng Rongyue's exquisite face showed no fear whatsoever, but rather was full of fighting spirit.
"Grandpa, eldest uncle, second uncle, eldest brother, today we're going to the Half-Mountain Manor with the Emperor. Besides witnessing the power of the weapons in Yue'er's space, we also need to discuss our next strategy."
In short, none of our people can be harmed, and none of those beasts from East Venezuela can be spared!
Yesterday, His Highness Prince Yu and I reached a preliminary agreement: the day before the Eastern Venezuelan delegation arrives in the capital, we will wipe out the Eastern Venezuelan Crown Prince, his cronies, and the entire gang operating within the Wangdong Restaurant in our capital—leaving no one alive!
